L'analyse du droit applicable aux relations sur l'approvisionnement du gaz russe a démontré l'impuissance du droit international de l'énergie. La solution pourrait être la fourniture de garanties favorisant l'existence des relations contractuelles entre Gazprom et les entreprises des pays de l'UE. Les bases de la réglementation de ces relations pourront être fixées dans le nouvel Accord international entre la Russie et l'UE. Ces relations nécessitent un perfectionnement de la réglementation au niveau international, mais aussi national.

It is rare to find an analysis as clear-sighted of the energy market regulation in Europe taking into account legal, regulatory and (geo-)political aspects. Congratulations to this contribution to the debate about regulating energy markets in the future.'- Herwig C. H. Hofmann, Professor of European and Transnational Public LawLaw and Policy of the European Gas Market examines the regulatory and competitive choices of institutions and bodies operating within the EU gas market, with a view to achieving a higher level of market integration. Offering an in-depth analysis of the design, structure and functioning of the EU gas market, the book considers the most recent European legal developments associated with this market and places them in their respective geopolitical context.This timely book contributes to the discussion surrounding the concurrent application of competition law and regulation on the EU gas market. It also provides a unique critique of the way in which competition law is used, mainly through the European Commission's so-called'commitments practice', while looking at consumer protection and the effects of such practice on third-country transmission system operators.This book provides a unique reassessment of the role played by sector-specific regulation in achieving gas market integration and will therefore prove a valuable resource for gas market participants, policy makers and lawyers in the field. It will also be of great use to students, academics and researchers interested in the latest legislative reform of the EU gas market or'the Third Energy Package'.Contents: 1. Introduction 2.

Nach der Veröffentlichung des Dritten Energiepakets im EG-Amtsblatt stellt sich auf nationaler Ebene die Frage nach den Umsetzungsspielräumen, die die Dritte GasRL dem Gesetzgeber lässt. Angesichts des einschneidenden Charakters des Dritten Energiepaketes vor allem für die Verwirklichung eines EG-weiten Binnenmarktes für Gas kommt den Gesetzestexten in deutscher und englischer Sprache große Bedeutung zu.
